How to Reverse payrun and notify the ATO

[Jen651]

I processed pays, sent file to ATO, but did not set up electronic payment file.

We had a power outage - when I went back in - no payroll records.

I reprocessed the pays including sending the file to the ATO and created a electronic file.

What is the best way to delete/reverse the first pay run, including notifiying the ATO a incorrect file was lodged.

Thanks

Hi @Jen651 

Thanks for your post. As the first payrun was sent to the ATO you would need to reverse the pay transactions by opening the transaction, clicking on Edit and Reverse transaction. This will also send an STP report that updates the YTD amounts with the ATO.

Please let me know if you need further help.

I had the same thing happen to me. I have 24 people in the payroll batch. 

Can I reverse the entire batch, or do I have to find and reverse every persons duplicate pay that I created?

Hi @LouLou1 

You will need to reverse each pay transaction. The Help Article, Changing a recorded pay, has instructions for this.
